Pickings have been slim lately, but today I found a pair of retro saucepans, a 60's furry beret, a nylontastic 60's bedcape (this'll make a great pattern for future little capes) and a longish pleated blue frock. I'll need to take it up and hopefully not loose the flippy hem.

Beret label love.

Tonight G and I are off to his primary school anniversary or reunion or something like that....

I so wanted to go to my class of 82 reunion last month, but we couldn't afford it, so I'll have to make do with G's!

We have no idea what to expect, but we're gonna make a fun night of it, whatever the case....

If there were a movie about this post I would call it Attack of the Floral Maiden. Gorgeous everything, especially those legs. Drinking to excess always has references to trades like getting plastered or hammered. Why is that? Why not get tutu-ed or nyloned?

Class of 82?? Wowza that's the year little old me was born! I am theoretically the class of 2000 but I didn't finish High School and wouldn't have any particular desire to go to a High School reunion. Primary school on the other hand was a dream, I would love to see everybody again from back then (well actually I am still very close friends with a couple of girls). Love your bright, Spring outfit!x

Can't believe you haven't shared that bag with us before, you sneaky minx!I'd call that a floral finale to end all floral finales and that necklace is just fabularse.The op-shop pickings may be slim but at least their quality ones. The sweet bed cape and Kangol hat especially!Get plastered, darling. I intend to!Lov ya! xxxxx

Primary school reunion:I'm curious about it!I'm used to weird situations here, I often spend my weekends with people very different from me and it's not always amusing, but I share your rule of being plastered if annoyed!You are a walking artwork in these photos!!The clashing floral patterns are fabulous! I adore your finds too, especially the blue frock and the cape, I can already imagine the tons of capes you are going to sew: Capelicious!!!Have a wonderful weekendLove xxxxxx

Oh I can't to here about his reunion, my best guess is that no couple will look as fabulous as you! I love this floral outfit especially those tights, yummy! I also know that new blue dress will look killer on you and I love the pink bits- of course:). Had dinner at the Observatory last week and thought fondly of you and G. I realized I take everyone I love most there- now that place holds some fantastic memories. Have fun tonight:) don't behave either!Xxoo

You rock those clashing florals like no other. Even your new thrifted saucepans are joining in! LOVE them btw, me want! As usual, I love the post title. Made me smile. Enjoy the reunion. A spot of Bombay Saph can make anything seem fun xxx

That bag is gorgeous and I love the shot of your tights and shoes, they go as if they were made for each other. I've never been to a school reunion but I hope you have a great time at G's. Great charity shop finds, I'd love a set of pans like that, another holy grail for my list of things to track down. xx

Love it! The purse is totally awesome too. I love the hat and little capelet. I've been wanting to make a bed jacket lately. Maybe I will. We missed our 10 year high school reunion but it's not that big a deal for us. In the US people only go to their reunions to brag and boast about themselves and their lives. Pass. We don't need others making us feel inadequate.

Holy Floral Amazingness!!! You are EXQUISITE darling! The floral coat is DIVAAAHHHN and the frock is splendid and I would MARRY that patchwork bag if it were legal! Tell us all about the reunion - was it hilarious? Did you get splerlonkered? Thanks for joining in for the finale of Floral Week. Love you more than fishnets! Sarah xxx

Again with the superior tights and shoes! I adore the wee lacy trim on your aqua frock (and now I will be repeating "aqua frock" all day - aqua frock! aqua frock!), and admire your mauve beret score - nice!

You are really making my day with this outfit. Overhere it is dark and raining, but you bring a bit of sun in my house. :) Love the colorfull flowers. The saucepans are gorgeous. So is the rest of your findings. xx :)

I love this floral overload!! You look frickin amazing. All the patterns and the raspberry mary janes - delicious. If you like Kangol hats, I'll keep an eye out here for some, I see them a lot in the charity shops, not all in the delicious sorbet colour - hmmm two deliciouses? It's getting near lunchtime xxxx
